I know this isn’t a Mustang, but I saw some pictures of this today and I thought it was pretty interesting, so I’d like to share it with everyone.

The 2009 presidential limousine provides the Secret Service with a “valuable asset in accomplishing its protective mission by affording its occupants the highest level of protection,” the agency said.

“Although many of the vehicles’ security enhancements cannot be discussed, it is safe to say that this car’s security and coded communications systems make it the most technologically advanced protection vehicle in the world,” said Nicholas Trotta, the assistant director for the office of protective operations.

Another company provides heavy armor that is reportedly at least 5 inches thick for the vehicle. The limousine also has run-flat tires, bulletproof glass, bank vault style doors, and a completely sealed interior to ward off a chemical attack, among many other high-tech security features.
It also has significant electronic communications equipment. Secret Service agents are training with the new limousine at a facility near Washington. It’s compared by some to a tank.
